초록

원자력발전 등에 기인한 방사성 오염물질들은 대부분 제염과정을 통하여 방사능과 그 부피를 줄이는데, 물을 주로 사용하는 기존의 방사성 물질 제염방법은 많은 양의 2차 폐기물을 발생시킨다. 본 연구에서는 용매로 이산화탄소의 특성을 이용하여 폐기물 저감에 효과적인 제염 방법을 적용해보았다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 우선 원자력 오염물질의 제염 대상을 금속 이온, 금속과 금속산화물로 분류하여 두 가지 방법을 적용하였다. 전자의 경우 계면활성제 킬레이트법을 이용하여 제염하였다. 제염대상 핵종으로는 Sr, Co, Nb, Zr을 선정하였다. Sr과 Co는 각각 핵분열 생성물과 방사화 부식 생성물의 대표 핵종이고 Nb과 Zr은 오염된 방호복에서 가장 많은 방사능을 차지하는 핵종이다. Static Extraction을 통하여 Sr은 최고 97%, Nb과 Co, Zr은 각각 79%, 73%, 64%의 추출율을 얻었다.

Conventional decontamination methods utilize water-based systems, which generate high amounts of secondary wastes. Herein, we describe an environmentally benign decontamination method using liquid and supercritical $CO_2$. The use of $CO_2$ as a solvent affords effective waste reduction by its ability to be recycled, thereby leaving be hind only the contaminants upon its evaporation. In this study, a $CO_2$ solution process was assessed using t-salen(t-butylsalen), DC18C6 (dicyclohexano-18Crown6), 8-HQN(8-hydroxyquinoline), NEt4PFOSA(perfluoro-1-octanesulfonic acid tetra-ethyl ammonium salt), and NEt4PFOA(pentadecafluorooctanoic acid ammonium salt) to extract spiked radioactive contaminants(Nb,Zr,Co,Sr) from an inert sample matrix, namely filter paper. With the static extraction method, Sr was extracted with a maximum extraction rate of 97%, and Nb was extracted with a maximum extraction rate of 75%. Additionally, we were also able to extract Co and Zr with maximum extract ion ratesof 73% and 64%, respectively.
